Setting Up Sample Containers

Access the Add Sample Container form.

Note: If you access this form to edit an existing sample container, the form title is Edit Sample Containers.

Sample Container

Select a value from the Sample Container UDC table (31B/CR) table to define what type of sample container you want to set up.

Sample Container Capacity

Specify the capacity of the sample container. The system uses this value to determine how many containers are needed for a sample. For example, if a container holds 500 milliliters and you create a sample for 1000 milliliters, the system indicates that two containers are needed to collect the sample.

UM (unit of measure)

Specify the unit of measure that you use to indicate the capacity of the sample container.

Closure

Select a value from the Sample Closure UDC table (31B/CL) to indicate the method and material that is used to close the sample container. For example, the sample container might be corked or closed with a wax seal.
